Product Description

A capacitive touch screen panel consists of an insulator such as glass, coated with a transparent conductor such asindium tin oxide (ITO).

As the human body is also an electrical conductor, touching the surface of the screen results in a distortion of the screen's electrostatic field, measurable as a change in capacitance.

But the capacitive touch screen cannot use a capacitive touch screen through most types of electrically insulating material, such as gloves.

This disadvantage especially affects usability in consumer electronics, such as touch tablet PCS and capacitive smart phones in cold weather.

It can be overcome with a special capacitive stylus, or a special-application glove with an embroidered patch of conductive thread passing through it or knitting from conductive yarn and contacting the user's fingertip.
